Maire Mullarney argues
about Language

Maire Mullarney's sixth book is a collection of essays written
over the space of twenty years. All but one were
composed in response to 'calls for papers', as contributions
to a conference or symposium on some aspect of language.
This meant that speakers were talking to other speakers rather
than to the audiences who happened to be present.
Maire's main aim was to alert people involved in linguistics
to the fact that Esperanto was a challenging topic often
neglected.

Well known both inside and outside Ireland in
Esperanto circles and far beyond, Maire Mullarney was an
active campaigner throughout her life in a variety of spheres.
She was a founder member of the Irish Family Planning
Association, a home education advocate recognised in Ireland and abroad, a founder member of the Green Party of Ireland
and a leading figure in Esperanto circles since her discovery
of the language in 1979.

Published by Arlen
House, Galway, this was Maire's last book, her second
where Esperanto takes a central role.
